Floating Garden by Novello

The Floating Garden

Novello Made in Italy Landscape as Landscape Architects

From nothing, a unique natural context that lives between technology and historical settings. The Novello Floating Garden, created at Bellagio, on Lake Como, is an example of green engineering of the third millennium. With a surface of almost 600 square metres, this garden is made up of intelligent islands, meaning modular elements whose frame contains the soil substrate on which the overlying vegetation thrives. Thanks to the constant maintenance of the floating line, it is safe and lasts over time. It can be quickly mounted and demounted to obtain a green oasis even where there usually isn't one.
